Her Majesty Fairy Vain
Beneath the bridge
like a silk linen robe
Slips on a smooth
soft skin,
She spins into the willow
and nestles in the tenderness
Of her artful Arms.
Subdued to herself,
Her vacant soul
Like Yore’s escaped
memories,
is inclined to decline

Would that willows wept as much.

a subdued art this, escaped
from days of yore

a vacant-hooded robe, bridging
the shallow incline of the years

brave despair nestled
at its core

a faint regret
weeping willowed tears

Hey, what I'm doing here, I'm not
good in writing poem, but I will try,
just for fun...

Childhood Memories

Vacant thoughts of the past
Slumbered likened yore
Nestled gentle and hushed
Shielded with a golden robe
Inclined akin to hidden broken art
Subdued to escape evoking
Yet bridging the narrow gaps
Reminiscent of sturdy willow
Lingered in the niche of the heart.

enjoying this.. Lol!
second try..oh, just correct me later..
newbie on this field, but would like to learn how to write poems.

Object of Your Affection

Subdued spirit longings
Passion inclined desires
Aplomb of genial devotion
Nestled, unrelenting to say bye.

Your world in vacant rainbow
Resembles robe enfolding willow
Bridging gloom and joyful
Mesmerizes itinerant soul.

Icon likened art on pedestal
Deeply etched in yore
Life support to vein
Proved love pure certain.

Unyielding ever persistent
Escape never endearment
This your love so divine
Undoubtedly affirming
Your affection is solely mine.

Muse Challenge
She Lay On Display

Robed only with a vacant smile
She lay
Inclined,
Inclined to escape
Nestled on a Willow settee,
She lay.

Her thoughts subdued for only the art.
On display
Inclined,
Inclined to escape
Over a bridge, between yore and
today.

Hello Muse,
Glad you like my humble poem.
I hope I can finish my other poems for your challenge.
Still cracking my brain to see if there would be some
'juice' coming out so I can finish them.
Take care..
